WILMINGTON, MA — Rudolph Technologies, Inc. recently announced that it has received orders for over $15 million of legacy and new process control systems from a memory manufacturer based in Asia. The systems will be used by a top-tier memory chip maker as they rapidly transition high-end DRAM (DDR4, DDR5) and HBM DRAM packaging from wire bonding to advanced packaging architectures. The shift from wire bonding is needed to achieve higher data speeds, superior power distribution and thermal properties using copper pillars, micro-bumps, and through silicon vias (TSVs) for stacked chip-to-chip interconnects.Delivery of systems will be completed by the end of the first quarter, with additional orders expected throughout 2019 as memory manufacturers transition their high-speed DRAM from wire-bonded architecture to advanced packaging.“Rudolph began working with our customers’ R&D teams nearly ten years ago to develop 2D/3D measurements of the emerging copper bump process. That long-term customer engagement has resulted in systems and software that we believe to be the industry standard for advanced packaging metrology,” stated Cleon Chan, vice president of global field operations at Rudolph. “Stacking die using TSVs and micro-bumps for HBM DRAM packages requires precise control of the copper features that will ultimately make the electrical connections between the stacked memory chips and the logic chip in the same package. After significant development in the package and the process control methods, these devices are now beginning high-volume manufacturing, which is being driven by the data speed and capacity demands from big data servers and graphics applications. These new, non-wire bonded memory architectures are creating a very healthy demand for our back-end process control systems. This customer is also using Rudolph systems for post-saw film-frame inspection looking for package defects.”A combination of Rudolph’s 2D/3D inspection systems and metal metrology systems provide a total process control solution to help assure that height, diameter, location and coplanarity of copper micro-bumps, pillar bumps, and TSVs are precisely controlled. After the packages are molded and separated by sawing, additional Rudolph inspection systems provide outgoing quality checks for sidewall delamination and/or hairline cracks, which are considered killer defects for advanced memory packages.About Rudolph TechnologiesRudolph Technologies, Inc. is a leader in the design, development, manufacture and support of defect inspection, lithography, process control metrology, and process control software used by semiconductor and advanced packaging device manufacturers worldwide.

The new round of funding values the company $3 billion, the company announced Monday morning, and brings the total amount raised to around $550 million.News of the funding was first reported by Techcrunch earlier this month. CNBC followed up Monday morning with an interview with Reddit’s CEO Steve Huffman, who told the publication that his company was continuing to build out its ads business. Huffman said that Reddit was also trying to become “a friendly home for users and brands alike,” which involved stepping up its fight against abuse on its platform.Reddit has been on a roll lately, growing its audience to 330 million monthly active users generating 14 billion page views in 2018. The company has also been doubling down on video last year, clocking some 1.4 billion video views a month at the end of last year. Reddit only introduced native video hosting in August of 2017. Popular on Variety Reddit was founded in 2005, and acquired by Condé Nast Publications in 2006. The site spun out of Condé Nast in 2011. The magazine publisher’s corporate owner Advance Publications, Inc. still holds a substantial stake in the company, but the newest round is said to have diluted that stake.Tencent’s leading role in the round led to some backlash among Reddit’s audience in recent days, with some users concerned that the influx of Chinese money was incompatible with Reddit’s commitment to free speech.Reddit is currently unavailable in China, as are some of Tencent’s other Western media investments: The company’s investment arm holds a significant stake in Snapchat’s corporate parent Snap, and owns around 40% of Epic Games. It’s also a business partner of Spotify after a stock swap with the music service in late 2017.read more
